I believe that there are many traditional ways of doing this, some of which involve the whole family at the time of the Feast of Lupe de Lourdes, while in some societies it is more acceptable to take the father alone to a traditional Zapatista.

In the medieval period did the man have to ask the father for the hand of his daughters marriage?
In Medieval times yes, the man who wanted to marry a father's daughter had to ask for her hand in marriage and if the father rejected the young man then his daughter was not able to see him any longer. Also, in some countries if the father accepted the young man's proposal of his daughter's hand in marriage there would be a dowry (either money or property that the father gave the young man if the father was wealthy and if the father was poor then sometimes the dowry would simply be farm animals, etc.)

What is the difference of a role of a modern father with a roman 'Paterfamilias'?
The Roman paterfamilias had the authority and final word on family matters. Not that he coulden't be persuaded to change his mind about, say, a marriage or a major purchase, or a bigger allowance for his offspring. His family could usually get around his objections; but technically he was responsible for all decisions. The modern father, on the other hand, shares his authority with his wife. Our society also relieves the father of responsibility for the actions of his adult children. The modern father shares many of the child caring tasks that were traditionally women's roles. A Roman paterfamilias, although he loved his children and grandchildren, would never take on the role of caregiver.

When should you ask her father for her hand in marriage?
Answer Asking the girls father for her hand in marriage is a bit old fashioned. I'd ask the girl first, see what she says, and ask her what she thinks about going to her father. She may not appreciate that jesture. She should be of an age where she can answer for herself, and doesn't need her father's permission.

If the young woman you want to get engaged to is of age (18 or older) then no, you do not need the permission of the parents. However, it is kudos for the young man to talk to the father about marrying his daughter (an old custom) as fathers are losing a daughter and the thought you would ask his permission for his daughter's hand in marriage would please him and make it less painful when he gives his daughter's hand away to you at the wedding ceremony.
